Alkyl Ethers

A transition-metal-free etherification protocol that is capable of synthesizing deuterated ethers is described. A wide range of aryl alkyl ethers and thioethers were suitable for this transformation owing to the mild reaction conditions. Besides, a series of sterically bulky deuterated alcohols were successfully incorporated into cyano-substituted arenes. The results of mechanistic studies suggested this reaction might take place via nucleophilic aromatic substitution pathway.

This work presents the first transition metal-free synthesis of oxygen-linked aromatic polymers by integrating iterative exponential polymer growth (IEG) with nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions. Our approach applies methyl sulfones as the leaving groups, which eliminate the need for a transition metal catalyst, while also providing flexibility in functionality and configuration of the building blocks used. As indicated by 1) 1H-1H NOESY NMR spectroscopy, 2) single-crystal X-ray crystallography, and 3) density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the unimolecular polymers obtained are folded by nonclassical hydrogen bonds formed between the oxygens of the electron-rich aromatic rings and the positively polarized C–H bonds of the electron-poor pyrimidine functions. Our results not only introduce a transition metal-free synthetic methodology to access precision polymers but also demonstrate how interactions between relatively small, neutral aromatic units in the polymers can be utilized as new supramolecular interaction pairs to control the folding of precision macromolecules.

Thiolate Anion

A catalytic reaction involving the cleavage of two carbon–sulfur bonds in 2,2′-bis(methylthio)-1,1′-biaryl derivatives is reported. This reaction does not require a transition-metal catalyst and is promoted by a thiolate anion. Notably, based on DFT calculations, the product-forming cyclization step is shown to proceed through a concerted nucleophilic aromatic substitution (CSNAr) mechanism.
